IFLA 2009


Things got under way today, Cathy and I went to register and pick up our packs of goodies. We had started noticing a lot of people all looking like they were a group and sure enough hundrds of Librarians were converging, we are all very distinctive with our orange bags and yellow ID cards.

It was amazing to walk into the exhabition space and see so many things all at once. We spotted the Proquest booth straight away and on our wander around we were able to pick things that were familiar to us. The wine and nibbles were quite good as well.

Had a chat to a couple of Australians that Cathy found as well as a chat to a lady from Atlanta, very interesting to talk to them all and find out a little more about other corners of the world. Once we got back to the hotel we made a list of evereything that we wanted to do and wouldn't you know it most of the things clash. We will have to get creative with how we manage our time I think.

Catch up with you all soon.
